Official Title: 24-Week Study to Evaluate the Efficacy/Safety of Transdermal Testosterone in Naturally Menopausal Women With Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder Receiving Systemic Transdermal Estrogen Therapy.

Further study details as provided by Procter and Gamble:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess the efficacy of the TTS by measuring change in frequency of total satisfying episodes. The safety assessment of TTS with various parameters. [ Time Frame: Assessment at 12 and 24 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess the efficacy of the TTS as measured by the following parameters: changes in sexual desire, personal distress, and other domains of PFSF and SAL questionnaires. [ Time Frame: Assessment at 12 and 24 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 300
Study Start Date: November 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date: March 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date: March 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental
300mcg/day testosterone
Drug: Testosterone
patch, 300 mcg/day testosterone, patch changed every 3-4 days, 24 weeks
2: Placebo Comparator
Placebo arm
Drug: Placebo
patch, placebo, patch changed every 3-4 days, 24 weeks

Detailed Description:

This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicentre, 24 week study to be conducted in approximately 300 patients at approximately 14 clinical sites in the UK, 6 sites in Australia, 5 sites in Germany, and 2 sites in Canada. Women will be randomised 1:1 to receive 300 mcg/day TTS or placebo for a 24 week period. Consistent with previous phase III studies, efficacy will be assessed over 24 weeks using the Sexual Activity Log (SAL), and at 12 and 24 weeks using the Profile of Female Sexual Function (PFSF) and Personal Distress Scale (PDS). Safety will be assessed over the entire 24 weeks. Hormone data (free and total testosterone, total estradiol, and sex hormone binding globulin) will be collected at Weeks -4 and 24. The total duration of treatment for each patient is 24 weeks.
